Hal Lubarsky Up to 620K

A few days ago, we alerted you all to a remarkable player named Hal Lubarsky. Lubarsky suffers from retinitis pigmentosis, and over the last five to ten years, his vision has completely deteriorated, leaving him legally blind.

Despite his condition, Lubarsky is still a very active live cash-game player, playing at the Mirage several times a week. He plays with the help of an assistant, who whispers his hole cards in his ear, along with the action on the flop, turn and river.

Lubarsky is having an amazing Main Event, making the money and sitting on a 620,000 stack, almost double the average chip count.
